10-Day Kashmir to Ladakh Tour Package (Srinagar, Kargil, Leh, Nubra & Pangong)

• Day 1: Arrival in Srinagar – Meet & Greet, Lakeside Welcome & Shikara Ride
  Arrive at Srinagar Airport, where our local representative will receive you and assist with a smooth transfer to your hotel or traditional houseboat on Dal Lake. The first glimpses of snow-capped peaks and calm waters immediately introduce the rhythm of Kashmir. After check-in and rest, the evening unfolds with a peaceful Shikara ride through lotus gardens and wooden houseboats, offering a close look at life on the lake that has remained unchanged for generations. Overnight stay in Srinagar.
• Day 2: Srinagar to Sonmarg – Mughal Gardens & Valley Drive
  Start the morning with breakfast and a visit to the historic Mughal Gardens—Shalimar Bagh and Nishat Bagh—where fountains, terraces, and lake views reflect Kashmir’s royal past. Later, drive towards Sonmarg, gradually leaving the city behind as pine forests and river streams guide the journey into alpine terrain. Overnight stay in Sonmarg.
• Day 3: Sonmarg to Kargil – Crossing Zoji La Pass
  Distance: ~125 km | Travel Time: 4–5 hours
  The road climbs steadily into Zoji La Pass, a narrow and dramatic mountain gateway between Kashmir and Ladakh. The scenery changes quickly from green valleys to stark rock faces and glacial streams. After photo stops and brief halts, continue towards Kargil, a town shaped by history and resilience along the Indus corridor. Overnight stay in Kargil.
• Day 4: Kargil to Leh – War Memorial & Indus Valley Journey
  Distance: ~220 km | Travel Time: 6–7 hours
  Begin the drive along the Indus River, passing rugged cliffs and scattered villages. Visit the Kargil War Memorial, a place of remembrance overlooking the valley. Continue towards Leh with stops at Magnetic Hill and the confluence of the Indus and Zanskar rivers, where two distinct waters meet but do not mix. Arrive in Leh by evening. Overnight stay in Leh.
• Day 5: Leh Sightseeing – Monasteries & Acclimatization
  The day is kept at a relaxed pace to adjust to altitude. Visit Shanti Stupa for panoramic views of Leh town, followed by Leh Palace and important monasteries such as Thiksey and Hemis. Prayer flags, chants, and mountain silence define the atmosphere here. Overnight stay in Leh.
• Day 6: Leh to Nubra Valley – Khardung La Crossing
  Distance: ~120 km | Travel Time: 5–6 hours
  Drive over Khardung La Pass, one of the highest motorable roads in the world. The descent into Nubra Valley reveals a striking contrast—cold desert dunes surrounded by snow peaks. Visit Diskit Monastery and later experience a camel ride on the sand dunes of Hunder. Overnight stay in Nubra Valley.
• Day 7: Nubra Valley – Villages & Desert Landscapes
  Spend the day exploring Nubra Valley at a slow pace. Visit traditional villages, orchards, and small monasteries surrounded by desert landscapes and river streams. The region offers a rare balance of silence, culture, and raw Himalayan scenery. Overnight stay in Nubra Valley.
• Day 8: Nubra to Pangong Lake – Scenic Shyok Route
  Distance: ~150 km | Travel Time: 6–7 hours
  Travel along the Shyok River route, where narrow mountain roads open into wide valleys and dramatic rock formations. As Pangong Lake appears in the distance, its shifting shades of blue create a striking contrast against the barren mountains. Evening at leisure by the lakeside. Overnight stay near Pangong Lake.
• Day 9: Pangong to Leh – Sunrise & Chang La Pass
  Distance: ~140 km | Travel Time: 5–6 hours
  Wake up to sunrise over Pangong Lake as the water slowly changes color with the morning light. Begin the return journey to Leh via Chang La Pass, crossing high-altitude terrain and snowy stretches before reaching the town by evening. Overnight stay in Leh.
• Day 10: Departure from Leh – Journey Ends
  After breakfast, transfer to Leh Airport for your onward journey. The trip concludes with memories of mountain passes, silent valleys, ancient monasteries, and the ever-changing landscapes of Kashmir and Ladakh.
